I never thought I’d say this, but “oh winter!…wherefore art thou?” After all, what is winter in Montana without snowballs, sledding and snowmen? Instead we’ve got record highs in Bozeman! Yep, 58 degrees yesterday! OK, so truth be told it has been nice, almost a luxury in fact having a break from last winter’s snowmaggedon,...
One thing I really wish we did we we built our home was create a playroom for our twins…a designated area where they could play, do art, make a mess and at the end of the day, all I would have to do is shut the door! I still find myself tiptoe-ing through their rooms,...
I am so honored to have the boutique studio featured on The Savvy Photographer Blog today! The Savvy Photographer Blog, launched August 1, 2009, by photographer Marsha Misfud as a blog that would inspire other photographers, had over five hundred thousand people visit in the first year. Today, the Savvy blog is the talk of...
Pregnant. With twins. So much to look forward to. Milestones, memories and the making of family traditions. But first, came the nursery. Their first room. The one they would come HOME to. Decorating Sam & Larissa’s nursery was one of my favorite decorating projects ever. Just the idea that in this room, my babies will...
Does your home have a staircase? If so, what is decorating the walls? If you answered “nothing”, then you are missing a fabulous opportunity! I can’t even begin to tell you how many homes I have entered where there is nothing decorating the staircase walls! I am pleased to say that I have had clients...
“And thank you for a house full of people I love. Amen.” ~ Terri Guillemets I photograph quite a few family reunions each summer anywhere from Bozeman to Big Sky, from Livingston to Yellowstone. I always start out with group shots, and then I like to break it down into individual family shots, shots of...
“Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever…it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.” ~ Aaron Siskind I love beautiful spaces, interior design and of course photography…both portraiture and fine art, and have been meaning for quite some time now to...
I think I have always been drawn to personal possessions of the past…antique furniture, dusty old books, childhood toys, vintage cameras and photographs. As a child, our family frequented swap meets and stopped at antique stores and rummage sales every chance we got…treasure hunting. Today, it is the most worn and loved objects that...
Bit by bit, the new boutique studio is coming along in preparation for my Grand Opening this summer during Livingston Art Walk. In the meantime, I’m pleased to announce that I am officially ready to photograph newborns and babies in the studio! I’m all set up with a private area for nursing, a baby changing...
I have boy/girl twins. How lucky is that? One of each. And every night, since they were babies, I tuck them cozily into bed calling each one my favorite, because *as individuals*, they are…my favorite boy in the world and my favorite girl in the world. Miss Larissa has been my kindred spirit since the...
